About This Content

Coming in hot and fresh from a distant galaxy to the digital media platform of your choice, it’s Hiveswap Friendsim Vol. 5! Now with two new trolls to friend and be friended by. Delve deeper into the hostile urban landscape of an alien world as you brush up on your Alternian culture. Experience thrills, chills, and perhaps even a little something extra as you swim the murky waters of troll romance. Bet you didn’t see that coming, huh? Romance, in a friendship simulator? Unheard of. People don’t romance their friends, that’s crazy talk.

Though it might not be what you’d expect—this romance you weren’t expecting, that is. So it might just be what you expected after all.
Sufficiently confused? Good. Throw down that dollar and allow us to explain.

You just crash-landed on Alternia, and you’re DESPERATE for friendship! Anyone will do...wait, who are those two trolls approaching you?

The Hiveswap Friendsim is a quick, loosely-canonical visual novel adventure following the efforts of the unnamed protagonist (that’s you!) to survive and maybe even thrive on the harsh surface of ALTERNIA. Set in the time of Hiveswap: Act 1, this episodic visual novel’s opening volume, written by Homestuck creator Andrew Hussie, is sure to satisfy Homestuck and Hiveswap fans who are eager for a darker stroll across the Alternian landscape.

Future episodes will arrive regularly as DLC.
